A bank? Private property? So who's money is being used for loans in the bank? She has every right to get her own money and take it out of there. You think it was the owner of the bank who called the police?

It appeared to be a bank employee. It’s private property. The bank owns it. The bank can set the rules for use of its private property, within the confines of the law, and as a customer, you either abide by those rules, or simply do not do business with that bank. “Mask up”, when required by the business, is as valid as “no shoes, no shirt, no service”. Again, the mask mandates are bullshit, but private property rights are a thing.

If you're going to enforce a policy, then make sure a security guard is at the door to enforce it so she can't get in in the first place. But there's another thing you're missing ... she's in Texas, where the Governor just lifted all mask mandates. You can't force people to wear a mask in a public domain where masks aren't enforced by government.

Requiring a security guard to enforce private property policy may be useful, but it's not required under any semblance of the law. The Texas Governor lifted the mask mandates required by the state, that does not do anything to regulate the rules of conduct with private property. If I own a business, and one of the conditions I impose on you during your patronage is to wear a mask for health and safety reasons, I generally have that right, and the right to enforce that policy by demanding that you comply or leave. If you refuse to comply and refuse to leave, as this woman did, I have the right to enlist the assistance of the police. At that point, you are trespassing. I don't have to like or agree with this mask bullshit to support private property rights...they're the cornerstone of liberty. This woman was fine right up until she refused to comply with the officer's requests that would have gotten her out of trouble for trespassing. Instead, she acted like an idiot, fucked around, found out, and made anti-maskers look like retards. That's not good.
